Twin Atlantic.
So I had heard about these guys in conversation before, kinda sparked my interest so took a listen to their album.
Twin Atlantic is a band from Glasgow, Scotland. Glasgow being a city that I truly admire and am very interested in from their flourishing music scene now to waaay back in the 1800's with the Glasgow Four. Anyways, so Twin Atlantic. In 2009 they took their musical journey across the Atlantic Ocean from Scotland to Texas and played a few shows and that led them to getting signed on "Red Bull Records", going to LA, and that's where they started recording their album, produced by John Travis whose produced albums for Static-X, Kid Rock, Sugar Ray, and Social Distortion. The album, titled "Vivarium" is their debut album and was released on September 14th, 2009. The lyrics are great, talking about not giving up and Americanization, not just personal stuff a more broad subject matter if you will. They really seem to believe in themselves, so that's good but I would like to express my personal opinion on "Vivarium".
The packaging for their album (it's like a pop up book) is a lot more exciting than their music.
Just not my "cup of tea". Hey, you're into 'The Xcerts' or 'Taking Back Sunday', you'll like 'em. Yeah actually just imagine 'Taking Back Sunday' with a Scottish accent.
Buh-Bye,
B of BJ
